BIO
Minori is a tattoo artist living in Bellingham, WA. Her early life is deeply rooted in Utsunomiya, Japan where she was raised as a child. In Japan, she developed her love of art through painting, drawing and using pastels since she was three.
​
For the last decade she has resided in Portland, where she explored many art forms. In her creative life she’s expressed herself through printmaking, b/w photography, figure sculpture, clay animation, graphic design, poetry, watercolor and acrylic painting.
​
As time goes on, tattooing has grown deeper in her heart, as it is such a sacred and ritualistic artform. She underwent an apprenticeship in 2014, and has been working as an artist ever since.
​
In that time her themes of tattoos have evolved into strong narratives of the feminine body, mind and presence, Japanese motifs, floral, visual poetry and flash inspired by the expressionist/abstract painters. She also loves colorful work, old fables, romantic, meaningful or decorative work, contour line sketches, dreamy shapes etc. The list is endless.
​
So, whether it’s her pre-made flash designs, or a custom piece she’s an artist that loves to translate an idea, feeling or inspiration into a beautiful work of art.
